    It could have been called something else?

    Music is originally Greek, and comes from the word 'mousike': literally 'the art of the Muse' and as such once applied to all the arts but increasingly, and these days wholly to those relating to sounds.

    "If once one named, others will follow" That is a quote... by the one the only

    MUSICMASTER.

    Now, if music was callled something else, I wouldn't have a pseudonym as such.

    Therefore, it is a nice name.

    Cheers,
